Biography

Up until joining university, my interests were primarily in Applied Mathematics. However, during my Bachelor’s in Engineering Mathematics at the University of Bristol, I encountered various physics subjects, from fluid dynamics to electromagnetism, revealing the deep connection between mathematics, physics, and computation. I soon realised my desire to contribute to physics, inspired by its reliance on computational methods to solve complex problems. This passion led me to pursue an MPhil in Scientific Computing at the University of Cambridge, where I study topics like magnetohydrodynamics and numerical methods, deepening my appreciation for the interplay between physics and computation. A PhD in Physics is the natural next step, allowing me to bridge my computational skills with theoretical physics and contribute to advancements in areas like nuclear fusion. During this PhD, I plan to explore the interactions between the plasma and the wall of the tokamak reactor. The goal is to generate state of the art numerical simulations, to explore the causes and consequences of these interactions. I’m excited to join the Gates Cambridge community, where we can share and learn from each other’s different interests and perspectives.
